Hi Jeff and folks,
To my surprise after reinserting Gigabyte PCI-E card, GV=NX66256DP2
NVidia 6600 PCIE
256MB DDR II/128 bit
the Avixe Platinum USB drive detected by FC5_64 automatically on plugin
# dmesg | grep usb
....
......
USB Mass Storage support registered.

Previously I got lot of trouble in running FC5_64 with PC hanging. So
I removed the PCI-E card and disabled onboard LAN, sound, etc. After
solving the problem with FC5_64 now working quite stable, I enabled
onboard LAN and sound and finally reinserted the PCI-E card.
The only difference discovered on inserting the card is on;
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
...
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nv"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge"
Option "HWCursor" "off"
EndSection
....
Before when the PCI-E card was on slot;
BoardName "nVidia Corporation NV43 [GeForce 6600]"
I don't know whether without editing it will influence the performance
of the card. I'll leave it a while to see what will happen.
